Creating Outputs

  1. From the Project Browser, select the system to which the output is to be added.
  2. Right-click on a system in the Project Browser and select Add > General MDL Entity > Output from the context menu.
    OR
    Right-click on an output folder in the Project Browser and select Add Output from the context menu.
    OR
    Right-click the Output button on the General MDL toolbar.
    The Add Output dialog is displayed.
  3. Specify a label for the output.
  4. Specify a variable name for the output.
    By default, variables names of entities in MotionView follow a certain convention. For example, all output entities have a variable name starting with “tmplt_”. This is the recommended convention to follow when building models in MotionView since it has many advantages in model editing and model manipulation.
  5. Click OK to close the window or Apply to continue creating entities.
    Once an output entity has been added to the model, the panel for the output will automatically be displayed in the panel area.
